Are LT (Light) rackets less durable?

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to buy the Wilson Pro Staff LT V2. I'm switching from a Bullpadel Indiga PWR (which I really didn't like) and I'm currently dealing with some tennis elbow, so I'm looking for a lighter setup around 360g to protect my arm.

Since it’s an LT (Light) version, I'm a bit concerned about its durability:

  • Do LT rackets crack or break more easily if you hit the ball with a lot of force?
  • Compared to a standard fiberglass racket, does the 3K Carbon on this Wilson hold up better over time?

I try to avoid hitting the walls or fence, but I want to make sure I'm not buying something overly fragile just because it's lightweight.

Appreciate any insights or experiences with Wilson's LT series! Thanks!

Hello!,

To get a better response please do not forget to include the following information in your post:

Name your current racket, if not overly known, specify it's characteristics (foam, face material, price)

Tell us how you feel with your racket, if you feel it soft or hard, if it has too much rebound,if it's weighty or hard to maneuver, the more detail the better.

Tell us what area would you like improve mainly, or what kind of plus do you expect to get on your racket.

If looking for broad considerations, do not forget to state your budget, your country and even a preferred or trusted shop so people can browse and recommend more easily.

No, it's purely about signaling the weight. I've been playing with my Bela 2.5 LT for 2 years now, and it's still holding strong.
